"SEI's technology and advisor services capabilities are immensely important for us to provide more effective, efficient, and personal interactions and information for our growing client base, and SEI's commitment to supporting our distinctive investing activities, while continually enhancing their platform's capabilities, provided us the comfort to make the switch. SEI embodies our criteria for enduring, successful businesses, and that is also a key differentiator for us."
